Getting rather bored with the current topics of discussion, I thought I'd
toss this question out. I read that the Hillman Imp engine of 875cc then
998cc is derived from the Coventry-Climax engine. Does anyone know how
it is derived? Is it basically the exact same engine, only made by the
Rooted Group? Surely someone (Scott?) must know the truth.
I notice that Imps are not very expensive, whereas Climax engined cars are
VERY expensive. Also, there is a certain car that I fancy (Ginetta G15) that
uses the Imp engine and can be obtained for a reasonable price (not that I
have any money or space anyway!).
